On August 27, during a regular press briefing, foreign ministry spokesperson Lin Jian addressed questions about former President Donald Trump's Wednesday announcement of a "national emergency" regarding foreign-made equipment in America's electricity grid. Trump further claimed that surging electricity demand has turned the U.S. power system into a target for hostile governments.

When asked for China's stance, Lin Jian stated that Beijing consistently opposes the practice of overstating national security concerns to suppress enterprises from other countries. He expressed hope that Washington will provide a fair, just, and non-discriminatory environment for companies of all nations to operate.

Lin's remarks underscore China's commitment to countering protectionist measures and promoting open, transparent market conditions, emphasizing the need for global cooperation in energy infrastructure rather than unilateral actions based on security justifications.
